the bats are at it again. in early july, this maternal colony (all females) reproduces, more than doubling in size  to about 200,000 – 250,000 bats.

at nightfall, they spill out by the hundreds, funneling off into the sky, disappearing into evening. it’s quite beautiful

new photo + words on habit today.

photos from our dinner at the bristol in chicago. so delicious. you’ll see what was left of our cheese plate (not much) and the housemade nutter butters served with chocolate sabayon, which were so good that i wanted to cry a little.

hope your weekend is nice. i might have to post a few more pics over the weekend. and then i swear, the writing is going to be more and hopefully better. it is time.

excited about the lovely list.
